Which grid do you prefer for editing, and more importantly, which will your
customers prefer?
Spread can dramatically reduce the number of round trips to the server, making
your application much more efficient. For example, the following grids are both
bound to a dataset and will allow editing. It's done by setting two properties
in Spread and by writing quite a bit of code in the MS Grid.
Using Spread, you can make any number of changes, even on multiple rows, simply
by typing in the desired cell. Then you submit all the changes back with one
click of the mouse (checkmark on Spread's bottom, left toolbar). Using the
MS Grid, you must first press the 'Edit' link (roundtrip 1), make your changes,
then press the 'OK' link (roundtrip 2) and repeat for every single
row you want to edit.
Imagine if you had to edit 100 rows . . . that would be 200 extra
roundtrips to the server (very annoying and much slower) while you can do
all of this with one roundtrip using Spread. Also note the page layout
change and scrolling issues when editing with the MS grid as compared with
Spread.
